Ahh Choo! From Allergies Not The Flu

Lexington, NC -- Sniffling, watery eyes, sneezing and coughing are symptoms you usually deal with in the springtime.

But this unusually warm weather is causing early allergy problems for many people.

When you consider pollen thrives in warm and windy weather, folks are already turning to their pharmacists for help.

Instead of cold and flu remedies, pharmacists like Steven Koontz at Center Street Pharmacy in Lexington say the different remedies for allergies are in just as high demand.

?There are various non-prescriptions that you can buy, you can utilize that are just as effective as some prescription medications. If people want to just try those for a few days then if allergy does not seem to let up any, is when the physician should probably be consulted.?

Medical providers also suggest a humidifier and hepa-filters to provide some temporary relief from winter allergies inside the home.
